As promised earlier, Teclast has released Windows 8.1 for the X98 Air 3G.
As expected, the forum post is locked (use Chrome or Bing Translator). But here’s the installation steps in English that weren’t locked up:
The link to the download is part of what’s locked.
And note:
Disclaimer: In order to meet the urgent needs of the typhoon win8, the release of this version of the trial version win8 firmware, still somewhat bug, hope you forgive me typhoon found in the experience of the process questions, please give us feedback (in posts ‘comments’ leaving the bug, and keep formation …), Guixie!
Boldfaced emphasis added by me.
In better English:
Disclaimer: Because of the clamor from Teclast owners for Windows 8.1, we are releasing this trial version of the firmware, still somewhat buggy, and we hope that the overall Windows experience will make you forgive us and that you’ll leave bug reports and other feedback in Comments here.
Boldfaced emphasis added by me.
So, they kicked it out before National Day.
I wonder if it was worth it for people?

This might help to some degree:

Is a firmware available for the X98 Air (without 3G)?
Not that they’ve mentioned on Weibo. Monitor their forum.
